EPISODE ONE (4/8/17)

SUMMARY: Z makes a living as a pitchman on infomercials,
though something's wrong with the latest product he's pitching,
a cleaner that won't clean; flaky summer intern Chad isn't much
help. He has a crush on his current co-star, Karla, that isn't
reciprocated, though he refuses to believe it. Z gets a phone
call with a major opportunity to audition for a serious project,
but Robyn, the head of the infomercial network - who has bad
blood with director AJ - thinks Z is the best infomercial
pitchman ever. When Karla returns from lunch break stinking
drunk, she spritzes AJ in the face with the cleaning project...
and they learn that the only ingredient in the "eco-friendly"
non-cleaning cleaning product they've been hired to pitch is
gin.

EPISODE TWO (5/6/17)
- PLAYOFFS ROUND 2!

SUMMARY: Z and Karla brainstorm advertising pitches for
the cleaning product, but nothing’s working… until Chad, who has
gotten drunk from misting himself with it, says how refreshing
it is. This gives Z an idea for a workable slogan… but then Chad
calls Robyn, who has asked Chad to call him if anything interesting
happens; when she learns that they're selling a cleaning product
that gets you drunk, she gleefully plans to destroy them by
exposing their plan to the media.
